Ms. Kathy Anderson

Director of Human Resources Warsaw Inc.

739 Washington Avenue

Portland, OR 78968

Dear Ms. Anderson,

I am writing in response to your advertisement which appeared in yesterday’s issue of Newsweek and I would like to apply for the position of manager at Warsaw, the established and renowned restaurant chain. My interest in Warsaw has grown out of a desire to work for a restaurant that is a leader in Greek cuisine. My research tells me that Warsaw provides some of the best Greek food in the nation.

In 2003,1 graduated from Portland University where I got a degree in Tourism and Hotel Management. I also attended additional courses to broaden my knowledge about food tourism.

As you can see from the enclosed CV, I have nearly ten years’ experience in the food industry. I have worked in three different restaurants which served Mexican, Italian, and Chinese food. I was responsible for managing these restaurants for seven years. For the last two years, I have been working as the manager of Chinese Express in L.A.

Although I am not currently living in Portland, I would be happy to relocate. I would appreciate having an opportunity to meet with you and discuss the position. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.

Sincerely,

Rose Sullivan

Stephen Moyer, the star of the MU soccer team, and jazz singer Anna Paquin announced their engagement in a joint statement yesterday. Although these stars revealed their relationship in February, they had been dating for months before they decided to go public. It will be his first marriage and her second. Paquin, 35, has two children, Billy and Lilac, to whom Moyer, 30, will become stepfather. “We couldn’t be happier and are looking forward to the next chapter of our lives,” the couple said at a press conference yesterday. No date has been set yet for the wedding. Both reportedly have very busy schedules and want to enjoy the engagement experience for a while before heading down the bridal path.

Moyer, 30, has played in the World Cup twice and is now playing with the MU team in Holland. They met after a concert that was held in Holland two years ago. They soon fell in love with each other. Her latest album, Tulip, was inspired by their relationship.

Paquin will leave for Montreal to play at the Jazz Festival 2010 starting next week, while Moyer will return to the States for training with the national team, in preparation for the FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
